The county magistrate was already numb at this time, and in just one hour, more than 10,000 people died! The panic finally couldn't be contained, not to mention the county magistrate himself, even the members of the team began to panic.

Death is already a looming problem, and this spreading trend has spread beyond stopping.

Oh my God!

A materialist roared at the sky, and this look of despair filled the faces of the large and small crowds, and even the newly sensible dolls stopped laughing, and the people who could gather together began to gather with each other, and the crowds of people who would more or less protest and march when this kind of thing happened on weekdays had long since disappeared and wanted to flee.

But......

Can you escape?

Hundreds of thousands of people would want to escape the city, which is simply unthinkable. But this was just the beginning, it was half past nine in the evening, and the sky was full of dark clouds, and there was not a trace of starlight in sight.

The source of the spread of this 'virus' has already appeared, that is, in Pearl Lake, for the simple reason that people near Pearl Lake die the fastest, and it can be said that most of the people who die there.

And this momentum is constantly spreading, and a great fear is constantly urging and releasing it, and it is about to swallow up the entire city.

Death has come.

The county magistrate decided that this was the last meeting, and the content of the meeting still needed to be recorded by the clerks, which was perhaps the most important comment on the merits and demerits of their deaths, and even if they died, they should not leave a stain on their deaths. In this kingdom, the reputation after death is often the most important thing when people are alive, and it is also what people who are still alive want to see the most.

The officials of this kingdom would never have uttered the famous remark of King Louis XV of France: "Even if the flood is terrible after my death". [Note: 1 popularize this sentence, there will be a source of this sentence at the end of this section.] 】

The posthumous name is always the most important thing for the officials of this country, and every official who stands in a high position hopes that he can be praised, just like the seller of the online store Taobao.

However, there are many black-hearted shops after all, but this one in Pearl County is inspired to be a good official, but unfortunately, the fate of a good official seems to be coming to an end here.

The only thing left is the pages in front of him, which will become the criterion for judging the merits and demerits of his death.

"Well, comrades, here is everything I said. Now vote by show of hands......"

After a pause, seeing that no one voted to raise his hand, he smiled bitterly and said: "I know what you think in your hearts, but we are officials and managers of this city, and you here still have the responsibility of protecting the party on your shoulders. There's really nothing I can do now, and today's conversation will become a piece of history, and I've had the privilege of working with you for so many years, and although I haven't done much here, it's a good place to stay at home, and it's a good place for good security.

Although we are all under the leadership of the ruling party, and we should be staunch materialists, I do want to say one thing now, it is really fate, we are going to die. God doesn't make us beautiful, and he doesn't let us live well. Since you don't want to vote, then I will use my veto power to overstep my bounds.

Now I order you, in my capacity as the county magistrate, to go back! Reunite with your families and ...... Don't leave here. Just according to the arrangement just now, arrange a qiē manpower to prevent the people in Pearl County from leaving the city!

Not for anything else, just not to spread this terrible virus. Think about it that there is a big city with a population of millions out there, and there are several counties with hundreds of thousands of people in the surrounding area, if this virus spreads...... We can't be sinners in this kingdom.

So I can only grieve you, I'm sorry! ”

With that, he stood up, bowed deeply, and rested his head on the table in front of him.

This...... This...... This county magistrate actually wants to take a county seat and hundreds of thousands of people to die!

At this time, the shock in everyone's hearts had already subsided, and after weighing it, they knew that this was indeed the best way, go back to reunite with their families, and then ......

Then it was necessary to guard all the main exits of the city with men who could carry out the order, and even agreed in the meeting to raise the butcher's knife in the face of the innocent people, because they could not, and resolutely not let anyone go out. Until a way to prevent contagion is found, when there is no clear means to verify whether a person is infected.

This is no longer something that can be done with a ruthless heart.

Everyone here knows in their hearts that they have to go out of this gate, and they have to contact many people to carry out this matter, and this order is distributed, it will be a massacre!

Self-killing in the true sense, but what are the consequences of not doing so?

Not to mention the inexplicable loss of contact outside, the passage outside seems to have been guarded, just this terrifying spread of the virus, if it is really taken out, once it spreads in a city with a population of one million, what kind of terrible scene will it be?

At that time, I am afraid that all these people here will be true sinners of the ages!

"Break up!!" The county magistrate stood up, his originally tall figure had lost at some point, and he looked twenty years old out of thin air.

The county magistrate ignored the Standing Committee members and directors in the conference room, and even the secretary around him was beaten back by him, because his secretary had been absent for a long time, and his longing for his family made him unable to devote himself to work normally. And at this time, the county magistrate really couldn't suppress him anymore, waved his hand and let him go back to take care of his family, because he knew that the young secretary had just gotten married, and his new wife was still expecting it.

A person lowered his head and opened the office door, did not turn on the light, just quietly walked to the chair behind the desk and sat down, decadently pulled out a cigarette, picked up the lighter, perhaps because he was afraid of the light, the lighter was held in the palm of his hand but not lit.

"Are you afraid?" An unfamiliar voice was cold, slightly hoarse.

"Who is it?" The county magistrate stood up suddenly, and although he had not yet adjusted to the darkness in the office, he had already made a judgment in a short time, and turned on the lamp on his desk.

There is a circle of guest sand in the corner of the office, which is usually a place where subordinates sit and report to themselves.

At this time, there was a young man sitting on the sand, who looked really young, 25 years old at most, and he had a strange long knife on his legs.

"Who are you?" The county magistrate asked again.

The young man didn't move, but only asked, "Are you the county magistrate?" ”

"It's me!" The county magistrate woke up from the panic: "What is your purpose? Does the virus out there have anything to do with you? ”

How can someone lurk here in such a time of crisis, if it has nothing to do with the outside? What are you kidding, if it weren't for the ruling party's sense of honor holding himself up at this time, if it weren't for the fear that the spread of this virus would harm more people, he would have wanted to run away!

But after thinking about it, the county magistrate suddenly felt that he had asked a stupid question, which was really related to the virus, and people would not have come here.

Between the thoughts, could it be that this is someone who came in from outside?

"You came in from outside? Pearl County is locked down! Isn't it you...... No, is it an order from a superior? The county magistrate spoke again, thinking that this time he would definitely be able to get close to the other party's **.

But he was wrong!

The young man shook his head and said, "I'm here to find a friend, but I'm in trouble and need your help." ”

"Hehe......" When the county magistrate heard this, he sat back weakly, shook his head and said: "Young man, then you must have found the wrong place, this is the county government, not the local police station." If it were normal, I might be able to help you find someone, but now...... There were dead people everywhere outside, and there were no corpses left when they died. Since you have the ability to come in from outside, get out quickly. ”

The young man continued to shake his head and said, "I'm not leaving, I haven't found my friends, I'm not going anywhere." You're the county magistrate, and you have the most power in this city, right? ”

"Maybe." The county magistrate was very lonely, probably afraid of being lonely, so he drove this young man out.

The young man smiled and said, "The outside world is very much like a corner of hell, it really resembles. I had seen this poison in a forest before, but it was strange why it appeared in the human world. ”

"Terrible, isn't it?" The county magistrate didn't know what he was thinking, so he replied casually. There is nothing wrong with what the young man is saying.

The young man nodded and said, "It's terrible! Aren't you worried about the people here? ”

"Worry, but what's the use? Things have come to this point, I'm afraid only immortals can come to save here, right? ”

"Not necessarily, if I can find my friend, there may be a way to solve the problem here." Said the young man.

"What?"

The county magistrate stood up suddenly, his eyes staring at the young man with shocked colors.

"You, you, what did you just say?" He pushed away the stool behind him and ran to the young man as fast as he could, his expression solemn and his tone tinged with the smell of gunpowder.

The young man shrugged his shoulders, this action was very similar to that of a certain slut, but his tone was still cold: "I said, if I can find my friend, the skull miasma here may not be eliminated." He's amazing, he's my idol. ”

"Where's your friend?" The magistrate swooped down, grabbed the young man by the collar, and squirted out his saliva.

"I don't know, I thought you were the county magistrate, and the most powerful person could help me find it." The young man was very calm and did not mind this expression at all, he had experienced thousands of times more terrible than this.

"I'm sorry, I was so excited, I apologize to you." The county magistrate has made his mistake, and under this kind of violence, anyone can feel that they are being forced to do something.

He took two steps back and bowed deeply to the young man before asking, "Excuse me, who is your friend?" He's a miracle doctor? Or a top virologist? Or is it a folk detoxification master? No matter which one he is, I am here to assure you that as long as he can contain and eliminate the spread of this virus, I can use the funds of the entire county treasury to transfer to him for public and private purposes! If he wants money, I can do my best to raise money for him! ”

The young man shook his head and said, "Then can you help me find him?" Are you his friend, you, you, you said you had seen this virus? ”

The county magistrate suddenly came back to his senses, his expression changed so quickly, much better than the Oscar actors, but his face was full of shock and anger, could it be that this virus was released by the friend of the person in front of him?

"You didn't do it!" The county magistrate suddenly waved his fist, grabbed the young man's collar with one hand, dared to say yes, and immediately waited with his fist.

The young man smiled, a very simple smile, looking very simple.

The county magistrate didn't make a move, he was already past the age to do it, if it was twenty years earlier, this punch would definitely go down first.

The young man smiled and said, "Not us, not my friends. You may not be able to believe what I say, but if you do, then it will be much easier to do later. If you don't believe me, I'll just go out and find him myself. ”

"You say." The county magistrate did not let go of the young man's collar.

"Do you believe in ghosts?" Said the young man.

"I ......" the county magistrate let go of his hand, in fact, since the sudden incident appeared today, his heart also had a sense of awe for ghosts and gods, of course, it was just a kind of awe, he firmly believed in his heart that this incident was man-made, it was germ warfare! It's a virus! Of course, it could also be the end of the world, who the fuck knows?

"I know it's hard for a mortal like you to believe in ghosts and gods, remember what I just said? It's like hell here! I've been to hell, and it's even more terrifying than here! Believe me, no one wants to go in again. "The young man spoke very plainly, as if he were talking about having gone shopping.

"You, really?" The county magistrate stepped back again, how could it be that he was not sure that he was a mentally ill person at all?

The young man shook his head, stood up, carried the knife in his lap behind his back, and said, "I have a way to make you believe, but are you really willing to believe what you see?" ”

"How do you convince me of this?"

"Simple, just look at it and believe it. In fact, the sky over the city is really lively now, do you want to see it? The young man looked out the window, as if there was a picturesque landscape outside the window.

"What are you going to do? You can't have an operation on me, can you? The county magistrate smiled faintly, of course it was a miserable laugh, and there was a bitter smile that was about to be deceived.

"It's simple, that's it!" The young man moved suddenly, and he didn't know what he had touched with one hand, but he felt a faint fishy smell flashing from the tips of his fingers, and then, the county magistrate only felt a heat on the eyelids of his eyes.

"I can't open the eyes of heaven, I can only use my own blood as a medium to temporarily pollute your eyes, and now you can turn your head and look out the window. Hope you won't be afraid! The young man laughed.

The county magistrate obediently turned his head, if this young man wanted to kill himself, it would be too simple! With the kind of stretching out and moving just now, he is definitely not his opponent.

Thinking about it, he still turned his head to look out the window.

But the next moment, the scene outside the window made him feel a wave of fear!

"W-what is this?"

"Wraiths! After a tragic death, the soul is resentful, infects the soul and becomes a resentful spirit. You see, the bigger ones are the ones that have devoured the grievances of the other spirits, and scattered the souls of the dead, and they are gradually growing. Did you see the biggest one? If you open about twice the volume, you can call it a ghost, and you can really kill people. ”

The magistrate walked to the window, staring at the things in the sky, and at some point behind him, the young man walked up behind him and whispered.

"Are these really ghosts?"

"Yes, if you're willing to stand on the roof, you'll see more!" The young man said.

At this time, after seeing the results of believing, the county magistrate suddenly turned around and asked, "Who is your friend?" What exactly is this virus? Also, why can't the city go out? Even the communication was cut off, you know? ”

The young man nodded and said, "I know everything, the only one who doesn't know where my friend is." ”

"Yes...... Tell me about it? Just think of it as a request. The county magistrate bowed his head.

"If you see a ghost, do you believe that there are youkai in this world?" The young man asked again.

"Youkai? Are you a youkai? ”

"No, I'm human. The city is controlled by a very powerful monster. Mortals can't escape at all, as far as I know, the hundreds of thousands of people in the entire county have been sacrificed, just wait for the old monster to reach a critical value, along with the blood and the resentful spirits in the sky, to achieve its advanced steps. The young man said.

The county magistrate asked, "Then why can't we escape?" Accused of the city, this virus was also released by that monster? ”

The young man nodded and said, "Yes, you can't escape because all the exits are guarded by old monsters and monsters, and mortals will die in the past!" Unless you blow up a road with heavy weapons, you might be able to escape. But once that's the case, I'm afraid that there will be truly powerful demon beasts and even spirit beast-level masters, and there will be more of you who will die by then!

As for whether it's a virus or not, I don't know, I'm just very simple when I once saw these things in hell and they were powerful! The destructive power is amazing! ”

"What about your friends? He's amazing, isn't he? Will he be able to save the people of the city? The county magistrate shouted excitedly, but what was even more panicked was that he had given an order with the highest authority after the meeting ten minutes earlier, and asked his colleagues to take people and weapons to guard the exit of the city......
